Belt or chain on my Mondeo?
Hello, can you tell me if it's a timing belt or chain ony Mondeo, and when it needs to be changed? It's a 151 1.6 diesel hatchback. Thank you.
Our answer:
Hi Aideen,
Assuming it's the new shape car, it has a timing belt that should be changed at least every 180,000km or 10 years - whichever comes first.
